The Fourth Anti-Norman Alliance Chapter 52 The War Begins

Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    Walter, the Norman marshal at the time, was stunned when he heard the Mayan envoy say such words.  What is this?  Want a pillow for drowsiness?  The Viceroyalty of Central America has now reached a bottleneck.  After all, the banner he sets out is peaceful development and self-preservation in troubled times.  Such a banner did help him a lot in the early days.  Attracted a large number of people.  But now it has become a burden that prevents him from starting a war.  If there is no proper reason to start a fight.  So such an act of betrayal will definitely severely damage his hard-won reputation.

    I don¡¯t know whether it¡¯s luck or misfortune.  Because Marshal Walter is very capable.  Norman's legal system and technological advantages are also obvious.  This satisfied the Aztecs living in the viceroyalty.  As a result, they lost interest in fighting.  This did favor Norman rule.  But correspondingly, it also reduced the motivation to expand outward. The Aztec refugees, who were content with their small fortunes, would not easily go to the battlefield to fight to the death.  Without these cannon fodder, the disadvantage of the Norman army's insufficient numbers was once again highlighted.

    It was such a situation that Walter was worrying about having no excuse to start a war.  The largest force adjacent to the Viceroyalty.  The Mayan Kingdom sent such a "big gift".  This made me think hard these days about how to create trouble and use it as an excuse to launch a war.  But I didn't expect that excuses would come to my door today!

    Thinking of this, Marshal Walter grinned and almost laughed out loud.  He looked at the Aztec nobles around him.  Writing allies read those as cannon fodder.  He saw anger and hesitation on their faces.  The anger was due to the arrogant words and deeds of the Mayan messengers, as well as the martial spirit of the Aztecs in their hearts. The hesitation was due to fear of the power of the Mayans.  And they are afraid that the war will affect their life, which is still pretty good now.

    Marshal Walter saw all this.  Including the little hesitation and fear in the eyes of the Mayan messenger.

    The other party is actually not as confident as he appears - the current strength of the Maya Kingdom is not enough to attack the Aztec Empire and find another opponent for itself.  The reason why he treated the Normans like this.  I'm afraid it's also because I want to test the attitude of the Normans.

    Marshal Walter saw through the psychology of the Mayans.  A bomb is most terrifying when it has not yet exploded.  Maya wanted to force herself to express her attitude.  Prepare early.  To prevent the Normans from stabbing them in the back while they were fighting the Aztecs.

    After thinking about this, Marshal Walter sneered secretly in his heart and said: "You barbarians. How do you know the power of my great Norman Empire? I just occupied half of the Aztecs. You are so arrogant. This time, this marshal  I will let you know what you are doing, just be a human being, and there will be someone like heaven and earth!"

    After making up his mind, Marshal Walter slammed the table.  That strength, coupled with the steel wire gloves on his hands, actually made a "pop" sound, and the strong and heavy wooden table was completely snapped in half from the middle.  Seeing the marshal make this astonishing move, everyone in the audience was shocked.  Immediately afterwards, he saw Marshal Walter pull out the saber given to him by Emperor Egil after he razed North Germany, and placed it on the neck of the envoy in a flash of cold light.

    "This marshal comes from the Norman Empire. I am under the orders of the Great Emperor Egils Cadragrimouson. I am loyal to only one person from the beginning. Who are you Mayan barbarians?! How dare you ask this marshal to become your vassal?"  !¡±

    Marshal Walter was in the Aztec Empire for nearly a year.  During this period, I learned to speak Aztec fluently.  At this moment, the voice was shouting with perfect accuracy.  The surrounding Aztec nobles suddenly changed their colors after hearing this.  Some cheered loudly.  Some people want to persuade, but they have no way to speak out.  However, no matter what he said, Marshal Walter acted as if he had never heard it.  He just stared at the Mayan messenger with wide eyes.  The messenger was usually a temple priest.  I'm used to being pampered.  How could he withstand such a scare?  Seeing Marshal Walter's murderous intent rising to the sky, the sword in his hand shone with cold light.  He immediately collapsed to the ground in fright.  I couldn't help but pee my pants.

    The man was so frightened that he lost control.  All the surrounding Aztec nobles showed contempt.  Marshal Walter snorted and sheathed his sword.  Order the left and right to pull the messenger out.  At the same time, he loudly said to him: "Go back and tell your master. To be honest, if he dares to come, this marshal will chop off his head!"

    In this way, Marshal Walter drove away the Mayan messenger.  He then consulted with his Aztec allies - he did not organize a defense as some thought.  Instead, he decided to take the initiative and attack.  Although verbally saying: "Offense is the best defense!" This sounds very reasonable, in fact, if you use forceful words, the actual reason is that if you don't attack, you won't be able to gain more territory.

    That's it.

    The Mayans didn¡¯t have timeBe on guard.  The main force was fighting the Aztecs on the front lines.  When preparing to advance to Tenochtitlan.  Attacked by the Normans.  The Norman army, possessing excellent siege skills, quickly overran several poorly defended Mayan cities.  Expanded his territory to the entire Yucatan Peninsula.

    It¡¯s just a few dozen days.  The marshal occupied three times more territory than he had in the previous half year.  This made the Aztec nobles who came with him extremely admired.  The marshal also followed the habits of the Aztecs in the distribution of spoils and the handling of prisoners of war.  This made the Aztecs even more excited.  The warrior's soul, which was gradually extinguished due to a stable life, began to burn again, driven by huge profits!

    In just one month.  Marshal Walter's army swelled to nearly 100,000 people!  He was joined by 80,000 Aztec auxiliaries, as well as Aztec civilian warriors and vassal nobles.  In many cases, the marshal was able to achieve victory without even using his precious Norman troops.

    In this short period of one month, Marshal Walter occupied most of the Mayan territory.  Defeated more than a dozen Mayan armies who dared to fight him.  His combat effectiveness, courage and enthusiasm attracted the attention of the entire Central America.

    In the ensuing war, Marshal Walter waited for work and completely defeated the main force of the Mayans who retreated hastily from the northern front with the intention of regaining their territory.  When facing the Mayan army that had swelled to 80,000 people, Marshal Walter adopted such a tactic. He put the Aztec indigenous troops in front.  Considered the backbone of the Aztec tribe he trained.  Head-on combat with the Mayans¡±¡­ (To be continued.!~!
